00:00At the first White House press briefing since President Biden pardoned his son, Hunter,
00:04Corrine Jean-Pierre would not rule out any more pardons, including even some preemptive
00:10ones.
00:11I'm just not going to, I'm not going to get into, uh, get ahead of the president.
00:16Uh, certainly the president is looking at, uh, uh, you know, reviewing next steps and
00:21there will be more to come.
00:22I'm just not going to get ahead of the president.
00:23I'm not going to get into hypotheticals from here.
00:25Some of the names being floated for those preemptive pardons, Dr. Fauci, former chairman
00:30of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, retired General Mark Milley, Senator-elect Adam Schiff, and
00:35former Congresswoman Liz Cheney.
00:37It's been nearly a week since President Biden pardoned his son, Hunter, after spending Thanksgiving
00:41with him and other family members in Nantucket.
00:45Biden pardoned Hunter Sunday night and then jetted off to Africa.
00:49Here at the White House, Biden's press secretary was asked repeatedly why she and the president
00:54told the American people there was no chance Hunter would receive that pardon.
00:59That is where we were at the time.
01:01That is where the president was at the time.
01:03I am his spokesperson this weekend.
01:06He thought about it.
01:07He wrestled with it.
01:09He wrestled with it and made this decision.
01:13That's what I can tell the American people.
01:15Donald Trump's incoming press secretary, Caroline Levitt, reacted to the about face.
01:21To tell the truth.
01:22And I think Corrine Jean-Pierre was lied to or she was lying to the press and therefore
01:26the American people, which is a complete dereliction of duty.
01:30So we wait and see if any more pardons or even preemptive pardons are coming.
01:35At the White House, Lucas Tomlinson, Fox News.
